British Boxing Board of Control

The only reason this is even coming out is because some of the bookies got screwed on the "Harrison goes down in the third round" bet.

This "World Title Fight" was actually far more of a fixed circus farce than the wrestling of WWF etc. At least the wrestlers put on a show for 20 minutes or so. They also perform genuinely athletic moves, and frequently get badly injured.

Haye and Harrison was a complete disgrace.

But then so is the modern sport of boxing.
